Ides of March

Today is March 15th, the middle of the month, the Ides of March, and this is what it look like at Paradise :o) I checked my iPod and see nothing but the same for the next week.  Lordy, if we don't get a glimpse of the sun occasionally, I doubt we'll be sane much longer :o)

I don't know if any of you are as interested in Obama's life influences as I am, but these two articles today are interesting.
